What a great last week I had. Talk about rocking and rolling...yes that is me in the photo above.
My previous post speaks of my writing THE END, that has really pushed me on I can tell you.
Then I got two emails last night, both saying the same thing, you can see why I am happy on A Poet's Word.
I finished my books by Nadine Laman, curled up and cosy in peace and quiet. I had a big bag of freshly picked grapes and a glass of wine. You know the sort of reading time, that is a rare, serene moment, well I had one of those moments.
I walked for miles in the vineyards, waving and chatting to the grape pickers, a cool breeze and bird song week.
I found two free downloads, author books with great tips and advice.
The Newbie's Guide to Publishing by J. A. Konrath
The Marshall plan Fiction Makeover ~52 Ways to Instantly Improve Your Novel.
I picked up a few tips and ideas from both that helped me change a few things in a chapter, it has improved it.
I have been asked to write a poem for South African friends who are getting married, they want it as part of their ceremony, it is such an honour to be asked.
Well I look forward to this week, I have started Monday with coffee with Cypriot friends so will not need to eat for a month, that will save me time for writing!
Let's hope my power plug arrives by donkey and I will be comfy with my laptop again.
